Are y'all doing any pre-class get-togethers? I'm here in the area now and I'd love the chance to get to know more of my fellow TLSers before classes start. I realize I'm not C/O 2013, but I'm just as new to HLS...

Okay, so I just added all the books for my section (#3) and the total for all the books at the coop came out to $1100 w/ recommended books and like $950 with required-only. The annual financial aid budget for books and supplies for 2010-2011 is just $1150.

Am I doing something wrong? Are these books supposed to be this expensive???

I think I remember the financial aid stuff talking about how our book budget was unlikely to cover all of our first year books and that we may have to use some from the living expenses section of the budget. I didn't really believe it when I read it--after all, the budget is quite large for books--but I certainly believe it now. These books are expensive! I found much better prices on amazon.
